ポリーは段落が欲しい: 2 年生、3 年生、4 年生向けのライティング スキル

We will cover basic writing skills beginning with complete sentences and culminating in solid paragraphs. A print-out of the provided Paragraph Planner will be required each week. An additional Note Taking Tool is required on days we are writing an informational paragraph. I will let you know when we need to take notes in the classroom announcements.

We will kick off with a discussion of the weekly topic. We will brainstorm how we might write about that topic. Then writers will begin plying their trade. Writers may share at the end of class, or the beginning of the next class if they wish.
